What’s the Difference Between 70/30 and 50/50 Vape Juice?
The main difference between a 70/30 vape juice and a 50/50 e-liquid is the VG content. With a higher VG content (70 VG), you have a more subtle flavour output. You also get more vapour but a milder throat hit.
On the other hand, 50/50 vape juice delivers more flavour but low to medium throat hit and vapour.
What’s the Difference Between Nic Salts and Regular (Freebase) Nicotine in 50/50 Juice?
The main differences are:
Nic Salts
- Smoother throat hit
- Faster nicotine absorption
- Better for higher strengths
- More similar to cigarette-style nicotine delivery
Freebase Nicotine
- More pronounced throat hit
- Slower nicotine absorption
- Better for lower strengths
- Traditional vaping experience
Can You Get 50/50 Shortfills?
Yes, you can get 50/50 shortfills. There is a misconception that shortfills are all high VG, but that's not always the case. For example, our MIST MTL range and our pastry range Sweet Thief are shortfills with a 50/50 composition.
What Coil Is Best for 50/50 Juice?
You should use a 0.8ohm – 1.8ohm coil with 50/50 juice because a high-resistance coil will only atomise moderate vapour clouds, perfectly suiting the MTL vaping style.
Using a sub-ohm coil – meaning a coil with a resistance of less than 0.8ohms – will result in an unpleasantly intense inhale.
What Nicotine Strength Should I Choose?
Your ideal nicotine strength depends on your previous smoking habits:
- Heavy smokers (20+ per day): 18-20mg
- Medium smokers (10-20 per day): 12-18mg
- Light smokers (10 or less per day): 3-6mg
- Social smokers: 0-3mg
Note that nic salts might feel smoother at higher strengths compared to freebase nicotine. All our products comply with TPD regulations, meaning maximum strength is 20mg/ml.
